Definitions
- This invention relates generally to land mobile radios, and more particularly, to a system for providing land mobile radio content using a cellular data network.
- Land mobile radios may be used to provide communication between different mobile units, for example, land mobile radios.
- Land mobile radio band communication for example, public safety radio communication (e.g., police, fire department, etc.) is generally available within the VHF, UHF, 700 MHz and 800 MHz frequency bands. Part of each of these frequency bands is allocated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for public safety communication services and are also referred to as Public Safety Frequency Bands. These communications also may be provided using private land mobile radio services (PLMRS).
- FCC Federal Communications Commission
- PLMS private land mobile radio services
- Cellular networks also provide communication between different mobile users, for example, cellular telephones. These cellular networks continue to be enhanced and allow for a continually growing set of applications to be made available to users. For example, these cellular networks now provide Push-to-talk (PTT) services that provide direct connect capabilities. Thus, a cellular phone user may request a direct connect communication link with another cellular phone user in a two way radio or “walkie talkie” type communication. As another example, these cellular networks provide high-speed data services, such as, for example, General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution (EDGE), Evolution Data Optimized (EV-DO) and Universal Mobile Telephone Service (UMTS).

For example, a determination may be made that an emergency signal is to be transmitted or that the LMR content is to be further routed to another base station. The corresponding action is then performed at 164 , for example, within the packet switched LMR infrastructure.
